Part I Th e purpose of this part of the monograph is to discuss the hypnotic response and to present two methods for achieving it. Part II Th e purpose of this part of the monograph is to outline an extremely eff ective procedure for obtaining self-control through the use of tape recordings which you can easily make yourself. Th is part of the monograph contains a new idea; for although the idea of giving commands to oneself directly without the formal use of hypnosis goes back at least to Coué (c. 1920), and no doubt much farther, a careful search of the literature seems to indicate that the idea of programming (by means of the repeated use of a recording) the subconscious mind to respond directly to arbitrary commands from the conscious mind is original with the author and consistent with the conclusions of other researchers. His method helps a person realize his or her potential in what appears to be an innate ability.
